                       <h1 >Become an Associate</h1>
        <p>New members are elected at the Associates' AGM, held in
      November each year. They serve for a term of about 10
      years. Candidates may be nominated and seconded by two
      Associates or by the Roll through the Roll Committee.</p>

<p>
A potential Associate is someone who has a proven track record in her
      chosen career path, unsung or well known, with qualities, skills
      and experience that could be used to help the
      College and its students. Candidates must be interested in the future of Newnham,
      and be prepared to give some time to the College. </p>

<p>
Candidates for election may be nominated by an Associate, 
by the College Roll Committee or can simply put themselves forward if they are 
interested.  The Associates' Membership Committee is tasked with 
identifying suitable candidates and recommends candidates to the AGM. 
In electing new Associates we seek to renew and enrich the range of 
backgrounds, skills and experience we make available to the College. 
<p>

<p>
The process of application and election is quite straightforward and 
someone from the Committee will talk you through it. </p>

<p>
If you are interested in becoming an Associate or wish to propose someone 
for election please
 <a href="sendMessage.php?assoc=sec">contact</a> the Secretary. 
        </p>
